Explanation:

Since, density is the amount of mass present in per unit volume.

Mathematically,      Density = \frac{mass}{volume}

As density is directly proportional to mass of a substance. So, more is the density of a substance more will be its mass. And, when more is the mass of a substance then it is likely to sink at the bottom.

Here, it is given that density of oxygen is more than the density of nitrogen. Therefore, balloons filled with oxygen will sink in the air.

On the other hand, balloons filled with nitrogen will rise in the air.

Write the expression for the equilibrium constant Kp for the following reaction. (Enclose pressures in parentheses and do NOT wr
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer and Explanation:

For the following balanced reaction:

PCl₅(g) ↔ PCl₃(g) + Cl₂(g)

We can see that all reactants and products are gases, so it is an homogeneous equilibrium. The expression for the equilibrium constant Kp can be written from the partial pressures (P) of reactants and products as follows:

Kp=\frac{(P PCl_{3})(P Cl_{2})}{(P PCl_{5})}

Where PPCl₃ is the partial pressure of PCl₃ (reactant), PCl₂ is the partial pressure of Cl₂ (reactant) and PPCl₅ is the partial pressure of PCl₅ (product).

Relative to the mass of the nucleous of a atom. the mass of electron is​
Paladinen [302]
The number of protons found in the nucleus equals the number of electrons that surround it, giving the atom a neutral charge (neutrons have zero charge). Most of an atom's mass is in its nucleus; the mass of an electron is only 1/1836 the mass of the lightest nucleus, that of hydrogen.Hoped this helped
